Ylures sans sel,evolution en phosphoranes et equilibre ylure ⇌ phosphorane : I Synthese et structure

Synthesis of new salt-free ylids $\text{9}$,$\text{12}$ to $\text{16}$, $\text{19}$, $\text{20}$, $\text{22}$, $\text{27}$ and $\text{29}$ and phoiphoranes $\text{10}$, $\text{17}$, $\text{18}$, $\text{21}$, $\text{23}$, $\text{30}$ to $\text{33}$ by addition of a trivalent phosphorus compound (phosphites and amino-phosphines ) $\text{1}$ to $\text{7}$ with dimethyl acetylencedicartboxylate in presence of a protic trapping reagent are described. The results are consistent with trapping of carbanionic species. In relation with the. cyclic of acyclic structure of the triivalent phosphorus compound and the protic trapping reagent ie : methanol, phenol, carboxylic acid, etc.., several pathways are involved. Clearly), three phenomena are shown : one can obtain an ylid via a phosphorane or conversely a phosphorane via an ylid or an equilibrium Phoiphorane ? ylid. Results are dealing with thermodynamic or kinetically controlled reactions.     

Heterocycles from carbohydrate precursors. Part XIX. The X-ray crystal structure determination of the reaction product of 4-(2-acetoxyethylidene)-4-hydroxy-2,3-dioxobutyro-1,4-lactone-2-(p-bromophenylhydrazone) with methylhydrazine

X-ray crystallographic data show that the product obtained in the reaction of 4-(2-acetoxy-ethylidene)-4-hydroxy-2,3-dioxobutyro-1,4-lactone-2-(p-bromophenylhydrazone) with methyl-hydrazine is the bicyclic compound 2,6-dimethyl-3,4-dioxo-2,3,4,6,7,8-hexahydropyridazino-[4,3-c]pyridazine 4-(p-bromophenylhydrazone) ( 10 ) and not as originally suggested 1-methyl-3-(1-methylpyrazolin-3-yl)-4,5-pyrazoledione 4-(p-bromophenylhydrazone) ( 8 ).

Collision-induced and infrared multiphoton dissociation studies on M(acetone)2 + (M=Al,Fe, Co,Cu, ScO) in the gas phase

In this paper we report an extension of our earlier study on the structure of Alfacetone)₂ ⁺ Collision-induced dissociation (CID) on MfacetoneXacetone-d₆)⁺ for M = Al, Fe, Co, and Cu yields primarily, if not exclusively, nearly equal amounts of acetone and acetone-d₆. Likewise, infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) at 10.6 μm yields, exclusively, nearly equal losses of the labeled and unlabeled acetones. These results suggest that the two acetone ligands bind in an equivalent fashion. Sc⁺ was also studied, which proved to be the most interesting. Sc⁺ reacts with acetone to form primarily ScO⁺, which undergoes higher order reactions leading to several products including ScO(acetone)₂ ⁺. IRMPD on this ion produces ScO(acetone-d₆)(CD₂CO)⁺, while its perdeuterated analog also produces ScO(acetone-d₆)⁺ in addition to ScO(acetone-d₆(CD₂CO)⁺. The IRMPD results are supplemented by studying the primary and higher order reactions of Sc⁺ with acetone, as well as the CID of ScO(acetone)₂ ⁺. Finally, a qualitative assessment of the infrared photodissociation cross sections is given. It is found that the relative photodissociation cross sections follow the orders Co(acetone-d₆)₂ ⁺ > Co(acetone)(acetone-d₆) > Co(acetone)₂ ⁺ and Co(acetone-d₆)⁺ > Co(acetone)⁺.     

Mössbauer studies on one-dimensional iron phthalocyanines

Summary Magnetic moments and⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectra at room temperature and at liquid nitrogen temperature of polynuclear ligand-bridged iron phthalocyanines, FePcL (L = pyrazine and 4,4-bipyridyl), are reported. The experimental data are in agreement with a pseudo-octahedral environment around the iron(II) cation. Partially oxidized derivatives, FePc(pz)I_0.26 and FePc(bipy)I_1.06 have been synthesized and their⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectra and magnetic moments within the same temperature range obtained. Oxidation is shown to be metal centred and the iodine is found to be in I^– form for FePc(pz)_0.26 and as both I^– and I ₃ ^– species for FePc(bipy)I_1.06. While the magnetic moment of FePc(pz) increases upon oxidation, the opposite occurs for FePc(bipy).     

Monolayers as models for supported catalysts: zirconium phosphonate films containing manganese(III) porphyrins

Organized monolayer films of a manganese tetraphenylporphyrin have been prepared and used as supported oxidation catalysts. Manganese 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(tetrafluorophenyl-4'-octadecyloxyphosphonic acid) porphyrin (1) has been immobilized as a monolayer film by a combination of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) and self-assembled monolayer techniques that use zirconium phosphonate linkages to bind the molecule to the surface. Analysis by FTIR, XPS, UV-vis and polarized optical spectroscopy show that the films consist of noninteracting molecules effectively anchored and oriented nearly parallel to the surface. The monolayer films are stable to the solvent and temperature conditions needed to explore organic oxidations. The activity of films of 1 toward the epoxidation of cyclooctene using iodosylbenzene as the oxidant was compared to that of Manganese 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl) porphyrin (2) and 1 under equivalent homogeneous conditions. The immobilized porphyrin 1 shows an enhanced activity relative to either homogeneous reaction. The main difference between 1 and 2 is the four alkyl phosphonate arms in 1 designed to incorporate the porphyrin within the films. The increased activity of immobilized 1 is a combination of the porphyrin structure, which prohibits the formation of mu-oxo dimers even in solution, and a change in conformation when anchored to the surface. The study demonstrates that careful monolayer studies can provide useful models for the design and study of supported molecular catalyst systems.     

Synthesis and Preliminary Anti‐bacterial Activity of Some 4‐Substituted‐N1‐2‐pyridylsulfanilamide Derivatives

2‐Amino‐4‐ethoxycarbonylpyridine 1 was used as a starting material in the synthesis of some 4‐substituted‐N¹‐2‐pyridylsulfanilamide derivatives to evaluate their antimicrobial activity. The obtained compounds were of no particular effect against the tested organisms except for a noticeable inhibition of B. subtilis, which was of varying extents but remained clearly significant.
